I ‘m a self confessed thread head, and I’m also a meme addict. Clearly so is craftster user OmegaChicken.
Not only have they stitched up this meme-tastic “Why not Zoidberg” cushion, but they’ve also shared the cross stitch chart, so we can all have geeky soft furnishings of our own … whoopwhoopwhoop!!
From the Sprite Stitch message boardSprite Stitcher SamR2D2 put together this sweet Mario pixel art cross stitch.
Get me a fire-flower STAT!
I love the smell of DMC in the morning ;-)
My daughter is very into “Gir” these days – the sidekick from the Invader Zim cartoon. She’s hoping to pull together a Gir costume for Halloween. So in researching various DIY options, I pulled together this roundup of Gir crafts.
BehindtheSofa created her own Gir cross-stitch pattern, and stitched it onto a black hoodie.
When I was a kid, I used to love Shrinky Dinks, so these Dog Gir/Robot Gir earrings by Lynn Aquaheart caught my eye.
“Man walks down the street in that hat…People know he’s not afraid of anything”. Ah, Firefly. No better way to recognize a fellow Browncoat than by seeing their “Jayne” hat. Or in this case, a hat cross stitch. silentblair stitch the iconic hat with the quote from the episode “The Message” (where we see Jayne get it). The pom poms are 3D, which is a really cute touch. She also backed it in “Browncoat issue underpants plaid”. Of course, now “Hero of Canton” is stuck in my head…
Here’s a reader submission/tutorial double header!
Gina from Kiwistitch.com is a cross stitch wizard… and to be fair I really shouldn’t be featuring her Cucco, I should be featuring her Ode to Spot cross stitch, and pattern. Her Chrono Trigger Sprites Cross stitch, and pattern. Or her insanely EPIC Bahamut Vs Alexander cross stitch and pattern, which weighs in at an impressive 30,000 stitches.
But no. I’m featuring the Cucco cross stitch and pattern… because it’s cute.
